Misery loves company!

In a relationship, patience is required. Even though you could eventually lose patience, it's important to remain calm and show respect during these trying moments since it matters more how you say something than what you say. The story that follows is an account of a frustrated wife. The original poster (OP) had been married for a considerable amount of time. Despite her desire to advance her marriage and begin the process of starting a family, her husband strongly protested the notion, citing…

He just couldn't wait, could he?

It seems like romantic movies and TV shows can sometimes make people think they live in a rom-com themselves, which is all fun and games until they take it one step too far. Not everyone wants to experience a big, dramatic, romantic gesture. Not only is it completely unnecessary most of the time, but it can actually cause problems between the couple without them meaning to. Take this Reddit story for example – All OP (original poster) wanted to do was make a romantic gesture for her boyfriend a…

How can you know that you are 100% over your ex and are ready to start dating again? There is no guidebook to handling breakups, and even if there was, each breakup is unique, and each person handles this emotional experience differently, so there can't be a single solution that works for everybody. With that in mind, I do think that if 10 years after a breakup you are still affected by your ex and what happened between you two, then you should definitely seek help, especially if there is someo…

Planning a wedding might be one of the most important trials for couples. It gives a couple the opportunity to make sure they are compatible in ways that they never got to experience before. It allows both to see how the other reacts under pressure, what are their planning skills, how they set their priorities, and most importantly – how they handle financial responsibilities. The couple in this Reddit story has a major problem with the latter trial – they found out that they handle their finan…

His subconscious told on him.

Oh, young love, isn't it beautiful? To meet someone new, get to know each other, fall in love, and go on romantic dates… It's all fun and games until you have to watch your ex-husband go through it all with someone else, and even worse, have his new girlfriend come to you for relationship advice. The woman in this Reddit story deserves an award for how she handled this situation with her ex-husband. Even though they broke things off mutually and respectfully, it still must sting when your ex-hu…

Breaking up is hard, breaking up with someone who refuses to let go is even harder, then throw in the complications of divorce and child custody, and the situation becomes nearly impossible, because one way or another, the relationship has to keep going. The man in this Reddit story did not expect to have so many complications with his ex, and his now fiance feels like those complications might seriously affect the relationship with her future husband. To give you a quick summary of the story d…

It can be quite a dramatic statement to claim that a proposal can be the downfall of a relationship, but I can think of quite a few examples to shed some light on a statement like this. One example is if the couple never discussed marriage before, and then one of them decides to propose as a surprise, then no, they should not be surprised if they are being told 'no'. Another example, coincidently the topic of this Reddit story, is when the boyfriend proposes to his girlfriend using the ring she…

She found herself in quite a stitch!

Time to tightly close the love jar

He kept bringing her up over and over...

I said, 'I've got an egg on my face.' He said, 'I love huevos rancheros.'

When people become parents, the concept of ‘free time’ changes completely. Parents simply cannot allow themselves to drop all their responsibilities and disappear, as they have actual humans to look after. If one wishes to become a parent, they have to understand that their time will never be solely their own anymore. That is a lesson that the husband in this Reddit story has to learn as soon as possible before it costs him his entire family. After losing his job, the husband decided to take ti…
